Hi Srinivas, The whole Debian system is made up of all packages in Debian. If you are able to (re)build all the packages, it is equivalent to (re)building the whole system. Similarly, if you retrieve the package source code for all Debian packages, it is equivalent to having retrieved the source code for the entire Debian system. Here are some resources that I am aware of: * By running "apt source <packagename>", you will be able to retrieve the source code for that certain source package that corresponds to the <packagename> you indicated. * By running "apt list", you will be able to get a full list of *binary* packages available on your current system. However, please be careful to distinguish between the "source package name" and "binary package name" (one source package may generate multiple binary packages). * By visiting https://sources.debian.org , you will be able to browse all source code of Debian system (or equivalently, the source code for all Debian packages) online. It's hard for you to download via web interface, though. * By visiting https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/, you will be able to view the development history and version information of the certain package. * By visiting any of Debian's mirror sites (e.g., https://deb.debian.org/debian/ ), you will be able to find the source code for all Debian packages under pool/ directory (which is equivalent to providing the entire Debian source code). The structure of the directory structure is not easy for you to parse manually, so I strongly suggest that you use the "apt source" command as mentioned previously. * There are multiple ways to set up build system. These systems take a Debian source package and convert it into generated (built) binary packages. There are some high-level software like sbuild (https://wiki.debian.org/sbuild) which provides clean interface and build packages within a chroot environment. It is used by Debian's official buildd.debian.org. -- Regards, Boyuan Yang 在 2019-03-13三的 07:03 +0000，Srinivas Rao写道： > Dear Simon Ritcher, > > Thanks for your reply. > > As you said, it is only for specific package customization process.
